If you garden, you know a few bugs. Meet some more. This is stunning macrophotography -- closeups of living, improbable bugs, frogs, scorpions, moths, mantises and small monsters, well lit and in perfect focus. These, and many more, are at Igor Siwanowicz's gallery at photo.net. These photos link to larger images; the captions are Igor's.

Hi, Sheila,
That pink creature is just unbelivably beautiful. Thank you very much for the link. Amazing photos! I wonder if they use Photoshop at all.

Holy cow! Igor Siwanowicz's gallery is unreal. How could we ever get that close to an insect? There is so much beauty out there that we may never see.

Pat, I searched and found this from Igor:
"I'll be posting...full resolution, straight-from-the-camera (complete with the "sensor dust bunnies"!) unprocessed, unmodified (blimey, I've even forgotten to rotate some of them!) photos."
This comes from this journal entry, and refers to a gallery at deviant art with some of these and other amazing photos.
So, no photoshopping. I looked at photo details on one of the images there:
Make: Canon
Model: Canon EOS 20D
Shutter Speed: 1/200 second
F Number: F/18.0
Focal Length: 100 mm
ISO Speed: 100
